As photons are packets of light, the soulstrings are packets of spiritual energy.

Before the Rupturians, spiritual energy existed only in an undifferentiated way, giving life to animals and plants, but due to their evolution over 20 million years, when the Rupturians annihilated themselves, when they destroyed their physical bodies, their spiritual energy manifested by itself, without a body, in small packets, like photons, in what are called "soulstrings".

The Rupturians flourished as an advanced civilization for over 20 million years; just imagine, 20 million years. We Human beings do not have more than 8 million years of evolution.

In 20 million years the Rupturians got to know the ins and outs of the universe.. All their knowledge is in the Rupturian Intergalactic Network (RIN), which in concept is like the Internet, but a lot more advanced, and with a scope the reaches the Local Group of galaxies.
